Abstract

This disclosure is generally directed to a method and system for business travel and expense management. An example method comprises receiving a travel-related query from a user associated with a business entity. The travel-related query is parsed to derive at least one attribute, such as travel arrangement details or preferences. Furthermore, a normalized allowable budget for the user is determined based at least in part on the at least one attribute related to the travel-related query. The normalized allowable budget is dynamically determined by applying business entity rules or artificial intelligence against historical travel data associated with one or more users. Furthermore, feasible travel itineraries for the user are selected based on the normalized allowable budget and the travel-related query and presented to the user via a user interface.
